21-Year-Old Driver Dead after Two-Vehicle Collision near Hansen Avenue

LAKEVIEW, CA (March 21, 2022) – Thursday morning, Joshua Vasquez-Escamilla died in a two-vehicle crash on Ramona Expressway.

According to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, the collision occurred around 5:40 a.m., on March 17th near Hansen Avenue.

Based on their initial investigation, crews believe that 21-year-old Vasquez-Escamilla, of San Jacinto was driving a Hyundai Sonata westbound on Ramona Expressway.

For unknown reasons, he drifted into the opposite lane and crashed head-on against an Isuzu box van. Upon impact, Vasquez-Escamilla suffered life-threatening injuries before he was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Meanwhile, medics transported the 34-year-old van driver of Los Angeles, to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
